weight was not a huge factor when Hopkins beat Trinidad IMO
Tito was struggling to make 147 lbs anyway right from his early WW days against Camacho,Stevens he is was easily a 154lbs maybe that is why he visited the canvas more times than he should have aswell like Oscar the weight might have been weakening him,Oscar was also dropped from draining his body early in his career
also Trinidad proved his credentials as a MW against Joppy and whilst i will aways agree with people taking away from B Hop's win over Oscar's because of natural size i dont think you can do the same with his win over Trinidad
i dont even think Hopkins win over Tito was based on the fact he might have been bigger and stronger naturally Hopkins fought on the outside majority of the time and picked his spots it was not a physical fight
a phyiscal mismatch is Holyfield v Czyz,Margarito v Cotto, when you can actually see by eye who is blatently the bigger man and you can see the bigger man actually imposing his size and strength,power on the smaller man
who agrees or disagrees with me
